The island of Ilha Grande is situated 250 kilometers west of Rio de Janeiro, in the
bay of Angra dos Reis and is 29 km long and 12 km wide. The car-free island is full of
lush vegetation and surrounded by 86 beautiful beaches. The interior of the island or the
surrounding beaches can be explored by boat or small trails. For most of the visitors
the starting point is the island capital of Vila do Abraão.
This trail on the western outskirts of Vila do Abraão leads to a small waterfall,
which is called Cachoeira da Feiticeiras.
For the way back we decided for a shortcut. Down to the beach and back on a boat
to the island capital of Vila do Abraão.
Ilha Grande, we will miss you.
